I didn't find a pic of the Healy, but here is a picture of my first car...





This picture must have been taken circa 1982, as it's right after an autocross we had out at Buckingham airfield in Ft. Myers, FL.

I would have a lot of before and afters...most of my first cars I had to restore first...the toughest case being The Bear ('59 Mercedes)

Oh, BTW, thought this was funny...my dad is taking care of the (uh oh) STOOK for me in CT...and I was talking to him on the phone...see, my dad has named every car I have ever owned. By dad's agreement her new name is Corner (I shite you not)

Here's the list

The Beast: 1970 Dodge Challenger RT440 sixpack
The Bear: 1959 Mercedes 300 SL roadster...built her from the ground up and I'll keep her 'til the day I die.
Twisty: '65 mustang hardtop coupe (Given the name because she twisted her rear axle into a pretzel)
Rose: '64 Alpha Romeo Spyder i built for my ex-girlfriend...still have her
Ledfoot: 1995 Nissan Maxima SE, supercharged (I can never leave well enough alone.....also the origin of my S2ki identity)
Corner: 2002 Honda S2000 (will get a supercharger eventually)

All the cars on this list are girls...regardless of name. I don't argue with Pop...he knows.
